Robserecaps Forty Four – The Deadpool Dilemma! Uncut Gems!...
posted by Joe
I took two weeks off for other podcasts and such (Rock & Roll Comics? More Todd bashing?), but with the Rob’s recent announcement, had to hop on this one ASAP! I may skip the Uncut Gems part, who knows? At least 15 minutes of this show is spent recapping the Rob’s history with comics and the prior Uncut Gems segments. Not going to Best Buy, Target or Wal-Mart can be seen as being ‘too bougie’ For some reason, the Rob used to hide his comics under the family washing machine The Rob claims the look of Cable was the body of Arnold Schwarzenegger and the head of Bruce Willis, but the Rob’s father in law likes to jokingly claim it was modeled after him The Rob spends a LOT of time talking about how the Marvel and DC movies and TV shows today would not exist without the creators of yesterday and equity arrangements with work for hire stuff In his late 40’s, the Rob became more creative than he had been in his early 20’s. The mind is willing but the body (and the eyes) are weakening and the Rob can only do 120-150 pages a year, but people way younger than the Rob can barely give you six issues a month Steve Ditko returned to Marvel, not to work on Spider-Man, but characters like ‘Speedboy’ The plan is for the last Deadpool story and Last Blood (the Rob’s finale on the Extreme characters he still owns) to end at the same time The Rob mentions some recent ‘health scares’ that he never had before but he’s saving THAT story for Comic Book dot com and the Hollywood Reporter For this Uncut Gems, we start with the head of Topps calling the Rob,...

The premise of this week’s episode is rare, unknown, little talked about work of two very popular creators, Frank Miller and Todd McFarlane. We get a few updates on Jim Valentino. Jim has returned home from the hospital, if he wasn’t before, Jim has retired from conventions. The Rob mentioned Marvel reached out to Jim to do new work recently. It was going to be a piece in the recent Deadpool anthology, but Jim would only do it if he got to work with the Rob on it, but the Rob was too busy TANGENT! The Rob talked about bumping into Marc Silvestri at the Eagles concert this past weekend. The Rob has seen the Eagles in concert ten times and really, REALLY likes them The Rob equates the original Image Seven to the Eagles, all heavy hitters in their field, all giant egos Last Blood, the Rob’s latest project will be available to purchase next week only through WhatNot and the Rob will be doing several variant covers for Dynamite’s new Thundercats line the Rob states DC is planning an “Ultimate style reboot”, as the Rob has spoke to people not on board with the new plans after 44 minutes, we are finally on to the topic at hand Some of Todd’s early work at DC were backups (second features) in Coyote and Infinity Inc inked by Tony DeZuniga Related TANGENT: the Rob tells a tale of several ‘heavy handed finishers’ that came over to the US from the Philippines. Their agents were negotiating triple normal page rates, which they got because they were that good. But the agents weren’t actually giving the artists that money. This caused many of these artists to change their names to get out of these bad contracts...

Robserecaps Forty Two – Rise of the Guardians part 2...
posted by Joe
I am very sad I cannot find a pic of the Rob and Jim Valentino together. The Rob is very proud of his son, Chase’s burgeoning acting career. The Rob mentions the Disney Plus movie he was in, Chan Can Dunk, stating it won “all sorts of awards” which I can find no record of. The Rob keeps saying that Valentino’s Guardians was a top 20 selling book citing only issue 11 as proof. As mentioned last time, issue one debuted at 19th place, but by issue 17, it was already down to 41st. Until Jim left the book with issue 29, it hovered around 33 to 50th place. TANGENT! When Jim would leave the offices they shared on Brookhurst in Garden Grove pre-Image, the Rob would draw at Jim’s desk. One night, due to the Rob not filling the tank on his car, the Rob prevented a car theft! Part of Jim’s success on Guardians was getting some of the biggest names in comics, from George Perez to Jim Starlin to Mike Zeck, to ink his covers, the inspiration for a different inker for each page of the Rob’s final issue of Snake Eyes. another TANGENT! There is a Dave Cockrum Brood issue of the X-Men that the Rob would love to re-drawn. Many ideas used in comics today (a planet where the mutants moved to, Wolverine’s daughter, Cosmic Ghost Rider, etc.) the Rob feels are directly influenced by Jim’s Guardians of the Galaxy. Did you know the ideas for Captain America Winter Soldier are from the Rob’s run on Cap during Heroes Reborn? The Rob puts over how financially beneficial the direct market poster program was for creators, having inked the Guardians poster for Jim. 43:33, we get the Rob insulting impression...
